    <p>I'm displaying an html table for a filtered collection of entities and I want to display a checkbox in each row as part of a form which will add the selected entities to a session var.</p> <p>I'm thinking that each checkbox should have the entity id as its value and I'll get an array of ids from the form field data (ok, so the value ought to be an indirect ref to the entity, but for the sake of simplicity).</p> <p>I've tried creating a form Type with a single entity type field, mapped to the id property of the entity and embedded into another form Type which has a collection type field.</p> <pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code>class FooEntitySelectByIdentityType extends AbstractType { public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options) { $builder-&gt;add('foo_id', 'entity', array( 'required' =&gt; false, 'class' =&gt; 'MeMyBundle:FooEntity', 'property' =&gt; 'id', 'multiple' =&gt; true, 'expanded' =&gt; true )); } # ... </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code>class FooEntitySelectionType extends AbstractType { public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options) { $builder-&gt;add('identity', 'collection', array( 'type' =&gt; new FooEntitySelectByIdentityType, 'options' =&gt; array( 'required' =&gt; false, 'multiple' =&gt; true, 'expanded' =&gt; true, 'attr' =&gt; array('class' =&gt; 'foo') ), )); } # ... </code></pre> <p>and in a controller the form is created with a collection of entities as the initial data</p> <pre class="lang-php prettyprint-override"><code>$form = $this -&gt;createForm( new \Me\MyBundle\Form\Type\FooEntitySelectionType, $collection_of_foo ) -&gt;createView() ; </code></pre> <p>When the form is rendered there is a single label for the identity field, but no widgets.</p> <p>Is it even possible to use entity and collection type fields in this particular way? If so, what might I be doing wrong?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
